Guest Lecture on 'Recent Trends in Reinforced Cement Concrete'

A Guest Lecture programme was organized by the Civil Engineering Department of Paavai and Pavai Varam Polytechnic Colleges for the Final year students on 04.08.2012. The Welcome Address was delivered by Mr.T.S.Gowtham,PPC.
Mr.A.C.Soundararajan, Principal of Pavai Polytechnic College delivered the Welcome address and introduced the chief guest to the gathering. The Presidential Address was delivered by Mrs.S.Sumathi, Principal of Paavai Varam Polytecnic College. The Chief Guest Mr.R.Muruganantham, Assistant Engineer, PWD. And Mr.P.Mohan Assistant Engineer, L&T. had delivered the detailed lecture on "RECENT TRENDS IN REINFORCED CEMENT CONCRETE".
Mr.R.Muruganantham shared his experience in civil engineering field and told about Reinforced cement concrete. In his statement he describes the partial reinforcement the stiffness of frame leading to critical damages also he explained the experimental investigations clearly show that introduction of brick inserts in partially in filled reinforced concrete frame increases the capacity of building for seismic load and hence recommended to be used by the designers in the existing building.
Mr.P.Mohan in his speech informed that how to design the Runway of Aircraft and its workshop roof. Then he told the elastic properties of hardened concrete and the strength of reinforced beams are better structural integrity also he illustrated the construction work. Their elegant speech was very useful for our students.
At the end their clarified the doubts raised by the students.
Paavai Polytechnic College Civil Engineering Student Selvan.P.Boopathi of final year delivered vote of thanks.
The programme was very much useful to the students. Shri.N.V.Natarajan, Chairman, Shrimathi.MangaiNatarajan, Correspondent, Dean and The Principals of Paavai and Pavai Varam Polytechnic Colleges appreciated the HOD's and the Faculty members for organizing the programme.
